| 844597 | 2009-12-31 23:53:00 | +1 for johcar The movie freakin rocked, potentially more-so as I saw it in 3D. Best $18 I've spent in a long time. When watching it, I'm not thinking "Ooooh this represents BMF's swaying around a dead person to bring them back to life", Im thinkin "Ooooh what pretty colors they used". Some people either need to get down from their high horse, or be shot off it. |

| 844599 | 2010-01-01 09:56:00 | I have to tread carefully on this topic because I'm already skating on thin ice over my previous racist remarks. I'm thought it was a weird article but I didn't think he called the film racist. Hell if you analysed the movie it would be implausible on many levels so I'm not sure why anyone would worry about how accurately it portrays colonisation. But interesting you acknowledge your previous comments were racist!!! |

| 844603 | 2010-01-02 04:45:00 | as with most forms of art, people see what they want to see. some will have seen a love story. some will have seen a war movie. some will have seen a parallel with iraq and oil. some will have seen a scf/fi film about strange world with blue people. this guy has seen it as a film about the negative impact of colonisation on indigenous culture. my only problem is that "stuff" published his rant as a film review, it's not a film review, it's a political statement. each to there own... |
